Property Details
Description
Please enquire for video walkthrough! Nestled on a tranquil, tree-lined street, apartment 6C is a charming two-bedroom, two-bath residence in a picturesque elevator co-op building. Located on the top floor, this intimate co-op offers both north and south exposures, bathing the home in abundant sunlight throughout the afternoon. Its interior-facing position ensures a quiet and serene living environment. With ceiling heights measuring approximately nine-and-a-half feet, anchored by hardwood flooring throughout, the home feels open and airy. The entry hall, complete with a large coat closet, provides a warm welcome into the home. The living and dining rooms are currently separated by a plywood-reinforced wall, providing both division and additional space for art display. This wall can easily be removed for those who prefer an open-plan layout, or it can remain to maintain separation or even create an additional bedroom area. The primary suite is spacious, featuring two large closets and overhead storage. The en-suite windowed bath boasts a vintage design with dual sinks and a separate soaking tub. The second bedroom offers excellent storage and also includes a windowed en-suite marble bath with soaking tub. The windowed kitchen maximizes vertical space with cabinetry that offers ample storage and functionality, continuing the vintage theme with a mix of wood and glass. It is equipped with a dishwasher, stainless steel refrigerator, and in-unit washer and dryer. Situated on East 87th Street between Park and Madison Avenues, this location is truly unparalleled. With Morton Williams market on the corner and Central Park just a block away, convenience is at your doorstep. The area is rich with countless shops, restaurants, and museums, all within easy walking distance. For commuting, the 4, 5, and 6 trains, along with the crosstown bus, are conveniently located on 86th Street. This Beaux Arts style pre-war elevator co-op building, completed in 1923, offers an intimate living experience with just 33 residences spread across six stories. While the building does not have a doorman, it is pet-friendly, allowing both dogs and cats with Board approval. Residents can enjoy a planted courtyard garden along with bike and laundry rooms. Additionally, the apartment includes a sublevel storage closet, providing extra convenience and space. Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to make residence 6C your own.
